The residence in Anacostla of Mr.. J. c..

Independent Order Of Good Templars, was
Illuminated on Wednesday night In honor
Of the twelfth anniversary of his life as
pledged temperance man. The house was

and to participate In the festivities of the oc
casion. Among the guests were Grand Chief
Templar G. N. Whitney and wife, members
Of Monumental Lodge, Past Grand Chief
Templar A. II. Frear, Past Chief Templar
Harry Hudson and wife, Chief Tempt ar $.
w. RUSSELL and Mrs. Pope, pianist of

The Woman's Christian Temperance
Union was represented, among others, by
Mrs La Fetra, president, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Roach. The Temperance Alliance was rep
resented by Its president, Mr.. II. B. Moul.
ton, wife, and son. Among the relatives or
near neighbors OF Mr.. Lee were Mr.. Joseph
Galliber and son, Mr.. Tew and family, Mai.
Hall and wife, the Rev. Mr.. Cook and wife,

past a round Of brief cougratulatory ad-
dresses were made by Messrs. Moultou.
Whitney, Hall, De Rue, Tew, and Mrs. La
Fetfa and Mrs. Roach. An original poem
was read by Mr.. Russell. To all OF these
fluctuations indicating vivid sense Of the
marvellous good which had resulted from
the signing of the pledge OF total abstinence
twelve years ago and breathing best wishes
for the host and his family, Mr.. Lee re-
sponded In an earnest and happy manner.
His daughter, Miss Josie, with grace aud
feeling recited poem opening with "IIow
Things Have Changed at Our House Since
Papa Signed the Pledge" The original
paper to which Mr.. Lee affixed his signature
and attested twelve years ago was exhibited
and touchingly commented upon by Chair
man Moulton. The chairman also presented
letters from absent ones bearing messages
Of particular and inspiring Significance to
Mr.. Lee and his family. The delightful
ceremoni,s Of the evening were rendered
the more delightful and impressive by sew
eral charming songs and organ solos by
Mrs. Pope, and numerous revival melodies
by male choir, Miss Josie Lee, organist,
accompanying.
